Tides of Change with Joan Dunnett

Tea. Toast. & Trivia.

Season 2 Episode 47: Tides of Change with Joan Dunnett

It is May 1704, and we are at sea just off the east coast of Scotland….

“James Lightfoot didn’t want to be put ashore at Figgate Whins. It was a dangerous place. He might be robbed of his remaining few possessions. He waited on the deck of the merchantman while the crew loaded bundles onto the boat: probably luxury goods to be smuggled into England. The ship’s legitimate cargo was bound for Leith.” Joan Dunnett, Tides of Change.

Welcome to Tea Toast & Trivia.

Thank you for listening in.

Pirates, spies, danger, and Scotland are all found in my current read, “Tides of Change.”

You will be happy to know that I am heading over to Edinburgh, Scotland today to meet up with Joan Dunnett, the author of “Tides of Change.” We are going back in time, so take a warm coat and be prepared for an extraordinary journey. But first, put the kettle on and add to the conversation on Tea Toast & Trivia. I am your host Rebecca Budd and I am looking forward to sharing this moment with you.

Thank you for joining Joan and me on Tea Toast & Trivia. Thank you, Joan, for sharing your love of history and storytelling. And a shout out to my dear blogger friend and frequent podcast guest, Liz Humphreys, from “Leaping Life” who recommended, “Tides of Change.” I am adding my recommendation to Liz’s and invite you to meet up with Joan Dunnett on Goodreads. You are only an internet click away from being swept away on a daring adventure. Until next time we meet, be safe and be well.
